Senses of Cinema

You probably already read the online film journal Senses of Cinema, and have your favorite writers. Perhaps you have inhaled all the pages dedicated to Kurosawa and Japaese Cinema.

But, I wanted to tell you of the newest issue (February 2010, issue 53) and the wonderful convergence of art and film I see in two articles. First, Orson Welles – Painter by Michael C. Riedlinger. Absolutely delicious comparisons of painters of light and Welle’s’ vision.

And, Chiaroscuro: Caravaggio, Bazin, Storaro by Angela Delle Vacche is lovely.

What must be a growing trend in connecting the dots…

I am loving it!

I never heard of Senses of Cinema, so I thank you for the heads up, it’s quite a nice sight to read from.
